The fluorescent buzz of the Quantico office dissolves into a low hum as Spencer steps into your space. He’s cradling a steaming mug, his shoulders curved in that bookish, intent posture you know so well. Without speaking, he sets the coffee carefully on your desk, his fingertips grazing the laminate edge. Then his hand lifts, lightly tousling your hair—a touch so tender it blurs the line between colleague and confidant. He turns, walking back to his own desk, leaving you with the heat of the cup and the ghost of his fingers in your strands.
